Answer:

The correct answer is C.) conjugation

Explanation:

Bacteria can not reproduce sexually therefore to gain the variation in their genetics they take the help of horizontal gene transfer mechanism. These mechanisms include three processes called conjugation, transformation and transduction by which bacteria gain extra genetic material from outside.

Conjugation is the process by which one bacteria gets the genetic material from another bacteria by making contact with each other with the help of sex pilli present on their cell surface.

These sex pilus of bacteria joins together and allow the movement of genetic material from donor to recipient bacteria. Therefore, the right answer is C.) conjugation.

Mountain ranges form along ___ plate boundaries via orogenic processes.

Tamiku [17]

1. Mountain ranges form along <u>convergent </u>plate boundaries via orogenic processes.

<h3>What is tectonic plates?</h3>

The formation of mountains is caused by tectonic plates. A mountain is formed when two tectonic plates move towards each other and collide, resulting in altitudes that can take years to reach but that eventually create massive mountains through what are known as convergent plate borders.

2. Rift valleys formed through the stretching of divergent plates occurs through a divergent boundary process.

When tectonic plates separate, they can leave low ground areas like the Rift Valley, which are produced by diverging continental plate borders. They can be found on the surface of the Earth or at the bottom of the ocean, and they are formed by the expansion of the seabed.

3. The formation of mountain ranges occurs as a result of <u>orogeny</u>.

This process occurs when one continental plate dips and the other rises, allowing mountain ranges to form. Orogeny is the name given to this process.

4. Scientists observe an extremely long <u>deformation </u>area in a continental plate during an orogenic process..

Scientists use tectonic plate simulations to study this deformation in order to better predict natural disasters such as earthquakes.

5. <u>Epeirogenic </u>process causes vertical plate motion along tectonic plates.

The vertical movement of a continent that generates soft arcs or rises parts uniformly is known as epeirogeny.
